securely connect with other users to share cases with them through the cloud service
discuss and monitor patient cases and receive diagnoses of patient conditions

The quality of entrants this year was outstanding and made it very hard to narrow the shortlist down to 10 – a testimony of the strength of the tech start-up community at the moment.”
